[QUOTE="merryoncherry, post: 130035, member: 37249"] Agree w/ TerryK, batteries are not practical and GFCI/RCD would be required. As would be true anywhere outdoors. A generator would be noisy, sure, but then again so are water ski boats. I'm not sure "being around water" is a big concern here. All the pixel stuff should be treated as if it's "around" water because most of it is, on occasion. Electrical can be worked out in whatever environment, so figure out the mechanical first. The tower is interesting, would be a lot easier to work with on shore rather than in the water. (Any manual maintenance will be easier on shore.) Lightning is an issue, if the pixels are on it when it hits there is a good chance something will be damaged, though most current will go down the antenna itself. Whether things are easily removed or not has to be part of the planning... if you can't remove it be prepared to repair it in place. The tall grass all over is an issue that would prevent you from doing what I do in my front yard... Having everything on some sort of platform, tower, or scaffold at water's edge would be the easiest, nothing would get lost, mowed, stepped on, etc. [/QUOTE]

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
